ArtFun+ 1.2.2 is a CE-marked software as a medical device (SaMD, Class I) for medical imaging healthcare professionals to measure advanced cardiovascular imaging biomarkers such as Ascending Aortic Distensibility (AAD) and Aortic Arch Pulse Wave Velocity (AAPWV).
We work with leading cardiovascular healthcare professionals, having helped with 77 publications in leading journals. We have also supported the world-reknown MESA trial.
ArtFun+ measure arterial stiffness and flow biomarkers that are commonly recognized as a major risk factor for CV diseases and considered as major predictors of cardiovascular mortality.
ArtFun+ is the most clinically validated & most published technology for measuring arterial stiffness measurement by MRI1,2,3.
